Is the performance hit the same in all distros?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 20:51

I daily drove endeavourOS with a 3060 for a few months and i remember games like cyberpunk 2077 and baldur's gate 3 on dx11 getting significantly worse fps than they got on windows 11 I got a new computer with a 3080 and before migrating i was wondering if I should use any other distro if my use case is just gaming, web browsing and light image editing

Steam Big Picture mode on wrong monitor

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 20:09

Hello,

I've been trying to get Steam Big Picture mode on Bazzite working on my dual screen desktop. I have 1 screen connected to HDMI on the right set to secondary in KDE and 1 connected through DisplayPort to my gaming monitor set to primary in KDE.

I can't, for the life of me, get Steam to launch on the right screen, it always defaults to my secondary screen on the right (set vertically obviously not pratical).

Is there a way to get set my DisplayPort screen as the default one, way or the other, since it shuts down everytime I return to Game Mode and Steam starts on my other screen.

It works fine everytime I go back to KDE, the screen wakes up and is set to primary but I lose it when I go back to Steam Big Picture. Very frustrating, any help is appreciated since I could not find any answer anywhere, I just unplug my second HDMI monitor and then it works fine but it's not ideal.

Xdefiant has a play test this weekend. Has anyone been able to get it working? I can launch the game, but when I try to get into a match, the game closes.

I'm using bottles. Tried the latest wine-ge as well as proton-ge.

Arch (KDE) crashes when fullscreen

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 19:48

hi yesterday I noticed that when I play games in fullscreen the PC freezes and I can't do anything other than forcefully restart it (I've tried to enter tty or disconnect from the session but nothing).

I thought it was a card driver problem (RX 6900 XT) so I tried to simulate the problem (elden ring fullscreen) with journalctl running.

Check the image for journalctl logs.

How i can fix this problem? Is a kwin bug?

My PC: Arch (KDE Wayland) RX 6900 XT Ryzen 5800X3D 16 GB RAM

Lackluster Gaming Performance (mainly stutter)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 19:14

Hi all, I've been working on setting up a fresh install of Kubuntu to dual boot with a Windows 10 install (specs included in image) to begin to transition to for use as my daily driver, but I've been struggling to get performance up on some games that I have no such issues with on Windows.

While I don't have issues with all games, the most common issues I do have are frame stutters and a weird sort of latency or delay in overall performance. For the most part, FPS as per the steam counter averages pretty decent.

That being said, I've had some issues with a Minecraft 1.12.2 homemade modpack having 10-15 FPS less on average on Linux than I do on Windows (same memory allocation).

I've installed the proprietary Nvidia driver though I haven't done any configuration tweaks. I've also installed and set up Autocomposer and Feral Gamemode and enabled them on all relevant games.

I'm running a dual 1080p monitor setup, the primary is 144 Hz through Display port and the other is 60 Hz through HDMI.

Proton Experimental/ GE-Proton 9-4 pre-rendered cutscene distortion

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 19:00

Hi everybody,

i like linux (EndevourOS/ Arch) alot. Everything i want it to do works as intended. Something I still haven't figured out are the ingame FMV's of some of my favourite games. The screenshot is from Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black water. Both Proton Experimental and GE-Proton 9-4 are able to play pre-rendered cutscenes in this game. But they look like one big LSD-trip...

I tried to encode the FMV into VP9. The game uses the new encoded cutscene and plays it. But i still get these wild color patterns. The game plays fine, but it is rather difficult to follow the story when i am not able to enjoy these cutscenes.

Are there people who experience the same? Did you fix it? To whom do i have to talk to help fix this?

Are vJoy and Universal Control Remapper supported for Linux? Or any equivalents?

How do I install DF Hack on Dwarf Fortress from Linux software manager ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 17:16

Hello,

I wanted to try to play Dwarf Fortress from the official depot of my Linux Mint software manager, which works, but I would also like to install DF Hack on that DF build.

I am able to install it on a manual DF build in a dedicated folder, by dragging all the DF Hack files in the DF root folder and all, but the problem is that the DF build from software manager seem to be scattered across several folders.

So as the DF Hack website explains, I tried dropping all the files where the "data" folder is, which seems to be in /home/user/.local/share/dwarf-fortress/run/ but that did not work.

In fact the only other place I could find other DF files is /home/user/.config/dwarf-fortress/ but I guess there are still many files I could not find.

I'm very new to Linux so if anyone can help me with this I would be so glad. Really, doing this is not necessary, but I kind of want to figure out how things works through such an installation, for the sake of learning and getting more confortable with my system.

So yeah, any help and insight into this would make me very happy, thank you so much for reading anyway and have a nice day.

What is the best FPS-limiter on Linux in terms of latency & frame-pacing?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 19. April 2024 - 14:27

Best frame-pacing is the main focus, lower latency is just a bonus for my usage.

When I used Windows, I used Special K.
It offered the best frame-pacing with low latency.

This benchmark is 4 years old, but Special K measured amazing here (take a look at frame-pacing):
https://www.reddit.com/r/allbenchmarks/comments/gohkn9/specialks_frame_rate_limiter_review_dx11_based/

It improved tremendously since then.

But, Special K relies on Windows DWM compositor for most of its optimizations, so running it under Wine is not a great experience.

I'm looking for an alternative way to limit FPS in games.
What is your recommendation regarding this?

I doubt that gamescope, mangohud, dxvk or any other FPS limiter on Linux can come close to Special K's fps limiter performance (although it's not measured or benchmarked afaik), but I would like to have the best experience I can have in this regard.
